Whilst events were moving rapi•Ily
outside, time at Lungdean (:range
Seemed to stand still. The dust and
the desolation were over therm, the
gloom brooded like an evil spirit.
And yet it. was but the calm before
the storm that was coiii img to ban-
ish the hoary old spectres for good.
Still, Enid felt the monotony to
he as maddening as ever. There were
timuts when she rebelled passionately
against the solitude of the place.
Thee were moments to her when it
seemed that her ' d couldn't stand
the strain much longer.
Itut she had hope, that blessed leg-
acy to the sanguine and the young.
And there wore times when she
would creep out and see Ruth (.ata7t,
Who found the Rottingdean !toad
very convenient for cycling just now.
And there was always the anticipa-
tion of a telephone message from
Chris. Originally the telephone had
been established so that the house-
hold could bo run without the in-
trusion of tradesmen and other
strangers. it had seemed a great
anomaly at the time, but now b.nid
blessed it every moment of the day.
And she was, perhaps, not quite so
unhappy as she deemed herself to
be. She had her lover back again,
now, with his character free from
every imputation.
The sun straggled In through the
dim, (testy panes; the monotonous
!Acro of Mrs. Henson droned In the
oindow in &Dano perplexity. ''to
west moment she had something else
le occupy her mind. Reginald 1 ea -
son was corning up the drive. Just
for an instant Enid felt inclined to
despair.
"Willianis," she cried, "1L•. lien -
'son is here. On no account must he
see our unfortunate visitor. lie can-
not possibly know that Van Sleek

dent. I am going down into the

Williams nodded. He was essen•
tially a man of action rather thin
words. With all the coolness she
could summon up Enid descended to
the hall. She gave a little gesture
of s'nrprise and disdain as she caught
sight of Ilenson.
"So you came down to welcome
mo?" Enid said, coldly.
A sudden light of rage lit up
henson's blue eyes. He caught Enid
almost roughly by the shoulders and
pushed her into the (Sawing -room.'
There was something cooling, she+

Enid passed on into the shadow of "I had only one sister," she said,1
the plantation. A little farther on
nearer the wall the dogs seemed to
be excited about something. Wil-
liams' rusty voice could be heard ex-
postulating with some intruder. By
hits stood a man who, though fairly
well dresseu, looked as it he had
slept in his garments for days. There
was a dazed, puzzled, absent espres-
sion on his face.
"Vou might have been killevl,"
Williams croaked. "If you hadn't

"If you could only get the ring,"
said Ilenson, with a malicious sneer.
"Ilut the ring is gond. The ruby
ring lies at the bottoms of the
North Sea."
Some passionate, heedless words
rose to !:Hilt's lips, but she checked
thorn. All she could do now was
to watch and wait till darkness, \'an
Snook mist bo got out of the way
before anything else was done. She
did not dare to use the telephone
yet, though she had made up her
mind to ask Steel to come over and
take Van Sneck away. Later on she
could send the message.
Van Stieck had eaten a fairly
good meal, so Williams said, and
had fallen into a heavy sleep. 'There
was nothing for it but to wait and
watch. Dinner Caine in due course,
with Mrs. Ilenson, ragged and un -
kept as usual, taking no notice of
Ilenson, who w'utcired her furtively
during the meal. Enid escaped to
her own room directly afterwards,

Once there his mariner changed en-
tirely. His lips grew firm, his eyes
were like points of steel. Mrs. Ilea -
son was peeing the dusty floor, mut-
tering and crooning to herself. Ilen-
son touched her arta, at the same
time holding some glittering object
before her eyes. IL was a massive
ruby ring with foul' black pearls ott
either side.
"Look here," he whispered. "Do
you recognize it? Have you seen it
before?"
A pitiful, wailing cry came from
Mrs. dlenson's lips. She was trem-
bling from head to foot with a
strange agitation. She gazed at
the ring as a thirsty man in a des-
ert might have looked on a draught
of cold spring water. She stretched
out, her hand, but Henson drew
batik,
"I thought you hail not forgotten
it." he smiled. "It means much to
you, honor, peace, happiness—your
sou restored to his proper place in
the world. Last time 1 was here 1
wanted 100003', a mere bagatelle to
you. Now 1 want £10,000."
"No, no," Mrs. Ilenson cried.
"Von will ruin me—C.10,000! What

"•instead of which you will let me

"i cannot. You will ruin e.

Ilenson smilingly held the gem
aloft. Mrs. Ilenson raised her arta
with the dust ruing in choking
clouds around her. 'Then with an
activity astonishing in one of her
y'enis she sprang upon Ilenson mid
lore the ring from his grasp. The
thing wan so totally unexpected from

could only gasp in astonishment.

Many farmers claims thorn is 110
money in fall pigs. 1 believe 1 can
i make as much growth for the saute
fee41 with a fall pig as 1 can with
u spring pig, writes Colon C. Little.
Of course, a 1111111 must provide suil-
aide feed end shelter and know how
to take care of fall pigs or he will
1,01 be satisfied. The fall pig can-
not hustle for himself around the
barn yard, eat out in the snow,
Fleep in a cold nest, and thrive very
well A pig several months old
may do this if he ham plenty of corn
and a little slop. But the young
pig. farrowed say in October, must
have special care and feed in order
to make a reasonable growth.
Mine is a winter dairy. 1 have
more skim milk to dispose of during
the cold months than during the
warm ones. During September and
October a large number of my pigs
are farrowed. I must have them
te. utilize this by-product of the
dairy profitably. In my case, I
proved that necessity is the mother
or invention. I will admit that I
had to solve the problem of grow-
ing full pigs.
For 'nature hogs, the temporary.
outdoor hog house works very well,
but it is not the place for the fall -
farrowed pig. .Ho needs a good
roomy pen that is warm and dry.
hoc weeks at a time ho ought not
to go out of doors. Every pleasant
day the doors of our pen are opet-
cd to give the hog house an airing
anti to allow the pigs to take out-
door exercise if they choose, yet
they prefer to remain in the pen
most of the time. Sonne days they
go out in their yards for a short
time. But they hct as if they were
pleased when the doors are shut
and the pen again assunx:S its 1101'1r -
n1 temperature.
The fall pig should have a balanced
rittion. He should not be allowed
to eat too mucn corn or too large
a proportion of skim milk. My ex-
per:once is that the milk should be
in about the ratio of three pounds
to one pound of corn. I never teed
the skint milk clear, but make a
stop of it by mixing wheat mid-
dlings and dried beet pulp. The
former is splendid food for graving
young pigs. It contains the pro -
telt. and the carbohydrates in just
about the right proportion. '('hero
is nothing that n young pig likes
better than n slop made in this way.

ME1t1'I:S OF DItY FEEDING.
The dry feeding system is meeting
with increasing favor. Breeders who
have tried one season of it, says the
Poultry Nows, claim that the egg
production is increased and they
have more uniform growth with the
young stock. The feed boxes aro
kept tilled with a variety of grains,
the grit box is full and also a box
of charcoal. Prom these tho fowls
take their choice, balancing their
owl rations as they do in the 101111-
tuer time on free range.
It has not been very long since
the farmer was censured for letting
his poultry have the range of the
feed yards, where was always a sup-
ply of corn, and of the barn, with
its wheat and oat bins. It was a
source of wonder to (he town breed-
er that under such conditions the
farmer's flock laid an egg. yetthey
continued to pay the grocer. Where
there is a variety of grains it is not
very different from the dry feed sys-
tem if chickens aro supplied with
pure water, housed warmly in dry
quarters and really have access to
feed bins. it they aro supplied with
grit and charcoal they will dotilttless
lay as well as the fancier's fowls on

LONGEVITY IN WARM CLIMATES
Statistics show that more people
live to bo 100 years old in warm
climates than in northern countries.
Wo know that in Mexico there aro
ninny reeten:u•lCns, for in towns not
forty miles from the capital aro not
a few men and women beyond the
100 year line. Germany reports 778
centenarians. F ranee '213, England
140, and Spain 401, and the popula-
lion of Spain is relatively small.
SCROFULA
Scrofula may be described
as " scattered consumption."
To cure it take Scott's Emul-
sion.
Scrofula is consumption of
the small glands under the
skin, and these break out into
sores. Scott's Emulsion heals
these sores.
But there's more to the
story. The loss of flesh and
great weakness that comes
with Scrofula is a regular part
of the disease - -the same as in
consumption of the lungs. For
this b • for the sores, Scott's
Emulsion is just the remedy.
Flesh and strength are
gained by the use of Scott's
Emulsion quicker than in any
other way.
Scrofulous children improve
in every way on Scott's Emul-
sion.

Children's Legs Amputated in the

Many a man's life has been sawed

are sometimes conducted in queer
places. In the streets of New York,
for instance, where statistics go t.,
prove that a serio'is accident occurs
evecy ten minutes, operations in
public thoroughfares and in the pre-
sence of crowds of onlookers have
bemtno so frequent as to cease to bo
looked upon as remarkable.
A curious coincidence occurred a
couple of months ago, when Ambu-
lance -Surgeon Joseph Samenfeld, of
St. Catherine's hospital, Ilrooklyn,
amputated l.he legs of two children
who had been caught under different
trolley -cars. The first case was that
of little four -Fear -old Isaac Willin-

In one of the most fashionable res•
taurants in Paris, last spring, a
man's life was saved through the
skill and quickness of ono of the
guests. It appears that a gentle-
man,
entlo-n►an, with three friends, was dining
at one of the small tables, when a
piece of meat lodged in his throat

of it. itis friends in alarm slapped
hien on the back, but the unfortun-
ate roan bee•amo black in the face
and fell to the floor.
A surgeon from the Gerniau llusl►i•
sal, who happened to be dining to
the cafe, pushed his way througt
the crowd. ile saw at once that the
man was dying, and if prompt meas•
mires were not taken he would quickll
succumb. ile ordered ono of tht
waiters to bring hien a small ('inne
such as in used in bottling wine, and
then, without a moment's hesitation
took out a sharp knife,

waiter having returned—quickly in
sorted the funnel in the opening. The
man WW1 then hastily conveyed to
the hospital, where a silver tube was
inserted in the place of the funnel,
and a few hours later he was pro•
flounced ovt of danger.
